PEEKABOO – Pump It Up: New Single & 2026 Tour Dates

Look, we’ve all heard “high-energy” EDM tracks before, but PEEKABOO (aka Matthew Lucas) just reminded everyone why he’s in a lane of his own. His new single, “Pump It Up,” isn’t just another club banger—it’s a masterclass in that weird, wonderful, left-field bass sound that only a kid from Detroit’s music scene could pull off.

If you’ve been following Lucas, you know the drill: the iconic hands-over-the-face logo, those signature 140 BPM drops, and that eerie, playful laughter that usually means your speakers are about to get a workout. “Pump It Up” leans hard into all of those trademarks while pushing his sound into a fresh, even more experimental territory.

Why PEEKABOO Hits Different

What makes Matthew Lucas stand out in a sea of generic drops is his background. Growing up in Detroit—a city that basically breathes music—he developed a “less is more” philosophy. He doesn’t need a million layers of noise to melt your brain; he just needs the right rhythm and a massive amount of low-end.

• The 140 BPM Sweet Spot: It’s the perfect tempo for that wobbling, freeform bass that gets a crowd moving without feeling rushed.

• Authentic Vibes: Despite the massive festival slots, Lucas hasn’t lost that “underground” feel. He still prioritizes intimate shows and raw connection over chasing a Top 40 radio hit.

• The “Hide & Seek” Aesthetic: Everything about the PEEKABOO brand feels like an invitation into a secret club where the music is strange, heavy, and undeniably fun.

It’s About the Passion, Not the Charts

In an industry that often feels like it’s chasing the next viral TikTok sound, Lucas is refreshingly grounded. He’s made it clear that his goal isn’t commercial domination—it’s about making music he actually likes and staying true to the fans who have been there since day one.

To him, success isn’t measured in streams, but in authenticity. With “Pump It Up,” he’s not just releasing another track; he’s doubling down on the unique, seismic imprint he’s left on the electronic scene.

Catch Him Live

If you want to hear those 140 BPM drops the way they were intended (on a massive sound system), here’s where you can find him this year:

Bottom line: “Pump It Up” is a reminder that the best music happens when an artist stops trying to fit in and starts leaning into their own weirdness.
